Soldiers could be identified for discharge from the Army while serving on the frontline in Afghanistan.
Some serving soldiers are likely to have to leave under the Manning Control Points (MCP) programme, the Ministry of Defence said.
Those chosen to go could be identified while serving on the frontline - but it is understood that the process of discharging them would not start until they had returned.
